Testimonials
We measure our success by what our customers have to say about us.
In business for over 60 years, our reputation speaks for itself!
The camaraderie, warmth and friendship at Mid-Island Air Service is the reason it has been my home away from home for over 40 years.
Additionally and most important, MIAS provided priceless supplemental education for my aviation program at North Shore High School exposing over 1500 students to the world of flying. Because of positive experiences many of those students continued their training at Mid Island Air and became pilots and flight instructors. Some went into fields such as air traffic control and a host of other aviation related positions. The help and support from MIAS was vital to the program's success.
As an FBO, Mid Island Air Service is definitely unsurpassed. Their attention to safety, the upkeep of their planes, their skilled professional instructors and of course, the resulting friendships can't be beaten.

Subject: NY Jet / Mid Island Air Service
Larry, I wanted to share the commendable service I received from our friends at NY Jet at Long Island Airport (ISP) last night. On my return trip home after flying two Angel Flight passengers from Teterboro to Boston, I had to divert to ISP after going missed at my below-minimums home base at BDR.
The good folks at NY Jet waived my landing fee, applied the Angel Flight fuel discount, provided a loaner car and generally made my unscheduled three hour wait in ISP for the fog to lift in BDR (maddeningly only 10 miles
from ISP) as pleasant as circumstances allowed.
Given that we're typically not buying 3,000 pounds of Jet A for an Angel Flight operation through their facility,
NY Air's generosity is admirable and appreciated.

They have a great program and the best instructors."

"Before enrolling in a flight school, I did my homework. As I spoke to people, I discovered that a lot of them took their flight instruction at Mid Island. Everyone I spoke with, had a positive experience. In fact, I never met anyone who had a bad experience at your school. I enrolled expecting the best, and was never disappointed... I received my private pilot certificate yesterday, and I don't believe I could have, or would ever want to have done it anywhere else ... I look forward to moving ahead with you for my instrument training."

"You and your operation are to be complemented on the way you handle business. It is obvious that it's a family owned organization and that you are interested in the long-term aspects of your business. This is evident by such things as your honesty in explaining the real facts to a prospective student, and follows through to the kindness of your personnel and the housekeeping at your facility. I don't think you realize that you are at the top of the heap! There are very few flight schools that have their act put together as well as yours."
- Hal Shevers, founder, Sporty's Pilot Shop, 2001
"I'm writing to express my gratitude towards my flight instructor, Mr. Joseph Titone. Without Joe's dedication to flight instruction, I know I would not be the private pilot I am today. He demanded the utmost attention and dedication from me. He set high standards and would not accept anything less. He would demand my best effort on every flight. He always kept to procedures and expected from me to do the same. He always taught my to stay strict with my flying, follow proper procedures and to never fall into bad habits. To this day I'm grateful for how he taught me."
-Frank Savio, 2003
"What a pleasure it is flying with you... I have flown with Mid Island for 24 years. I have confidence in flying your planes and always feel secure when I take a friend or relative (including my grandsons) for a ride. I praise your instructional staff. I have rented aircraft in California and Florida in the past. No FBO can ever match Mid Island."
-Leonard Mann, 1993
"After taking lessons at three schools... I was set up with an evaluation flight on the spot. Within my first hour I was on my way to success. I received my private pilot certificate 3 1/2 months later - a real tribute to Mid Island.
-Robert Magniccari, 1999
"I was very impressed with your operation, attitude and professional service. It was a pleasure to finally meet a person who genuinely knows his aircraft and is honest and straight forward about his business. written about Vincent Basile, aircraft salesman."
-Ed Duber, president United Aero Sales, 1990
"You should be very proud of the people in your organization. I have recently received my Instrument Rating. The help and support I received from everyone at Mid Island was outstanding. No matter how busy anyone was, they always took the time to give a courteous hand or ear."
-Anthony Monaco, 2000
